I don't see any apps I want to get rid of in my apps folder, but someone mentioned in another thread that the OS came with trial ware. Don't really need that, but is that also in my apps folder? Yes, yes I know I sound like a rookie, but that's because I am. Also, I thought macs didn't come with all this "extra" space eating stuff like regular PCs.

Is also possible to reinstall the printer drivers if I delete them and later find that I actually need them afterall?

The only programs that it Macs come with are in the Applications folder. The only trialware I can think of is that the Pro machines ship with Microsoft Office trial. But it is clearly labeled in the Applications folder.

I don't think they do. Only MSOffice and iWork. It also has some free apps and games but nothing like the amount of crap the has come on the PCs my family has bought over the years. To delete apps, you can download the shareware app Cleanapp, or spotlight the name of the app you want to delete and drag all the related files to the trash. Hope this help!
